Can you tell me more about 8th prince arc? Is he a good prince to our cp? And how about prince xun's heir? Did he go againts our cp because of his loyalty to emperor?
8th prince, Changyan hates our cp bcos Huayong killed his uncle. He came back to the capital to confirm it. However even without it, Huayong already planned to kill Changyan anyway, so it doesn't matter if he is good.
Prince Xun is loyal and good. Huayong doesn't dare to touch him. Prince Xun, Changfeng, is loyal to the person who sits on the throne. So even if the reign changes, it won't affect his status/life/duty. Moreover, Changfeng is married to Shen Yingruo, and Xihe ensures her future with Changfeng. They might be on different sides, but Changfeng isn't their target. Well, they use him for their plans though.
I see... Thx u for enlightenment ✨✨
And what happened to 8th prince, did he die?
Well he did something terrible to Huayong before he ran away. But Huayong used 6th prince, Changyu, whom Changyan is close with, to capture him. I don't think it was stated clearly how his end is, but I assume Huayong killed Changyan after he took him to custody, in secret. The 12th prince, Changgeng, took over Changyan's army to help Xihe in the end.
The novel has 3-4 major enemies, but our cp literally killed/eliminated a LOT of people to clean up the cabinets and pave way for their son.
Can you spoiler me about terrible things he did? And are our cp is unscathed? And did 8th prince arc long? I already read until 300ch, its just too long 😂 just hope a little spoiler... I like 12th prince from the start ;3
Changyan's arc is the last 3rd of the novel. His story is the opening for the last boss.
Well, he possesses soul stirring skill which can control people. When Huayong is about to receive treatment for his poison, Changyan controls a slave to poison Huayong instead. Xihe is furious and wants to kill Changyan. In the end Huayong manages to capture him using Changyu.
Nah, our cp is so formidable, overpower and outsmart everyone. They do get hurt due to trap or sudden attack, but their revenge is far worse. That's why the title is "After I bloom, a hundred flowers die".

“I have a question. It’s said that Gu Qing Zhi’s soul is in Shen Xi He’s body, with Shen Xi He’s memories intact. So, aside from the physical condition, wouldn’t her personality and principles also change, since it’s Gu Qing Zhi in Shen Xi He’s body? Or is the soul/body swap different in this case?
In most dramas I’ve watched, when a soul transfers into another body, the person may retain the original owner’s memories, but their personality, way of thinking, and behavior usually change significantly.
So if Shen Xi He’s personality and principles remain the same even after the soul swap, does that mean she only carries Gu Qing Zhi’s memories, but is essentially still Shen Xi He? Or is she actually Gu Qing Zhi, just using Shen Xi He’s personality to carry out her plans for revenge?”
